making...

I've had a sudden rush of creativity lately... Of course, necessity is the mother of invention, right? I made this baby quilt for friends who are due with their first baby very soon. I also made the 2 skirts below (+3 more) for a dance routine that the girls did with their dance class on Palm Sunday.They all looked so cute. I may rip the side seems out and add pockets because these skirts are screaming for some big pockets... I'm (not so) patiently waiting for school to be over for the year, so that there's a little more time to work on sewing projects and the garden. I also can't take a picture of my sewing to save my life.

Did I tell you how much I love the hands on those hips, that little belly button, and all those cute knees? No shortage of color (or cuteness) around here. I hate making anything in pastels. I do like the brights with black and gray though. I need to restock my stash with some black and grey prints.
